16 years after reforming, AFC Wimbledon secured their status as a League One side thanks to a 0-0 draw at Doncaster Rovers, while MK Dons were relegated to League Two.

That means the Dons will be playing in a division higher than the club for the first time in their history, under two decades after fans reformed the club after Wimbledon were re-branded into MK Dons and taken to Milton Keynes.

It's a joyous occasion for fans of the Dons, who after getting the go-ahead to build a new stadium at Plough Lane are celebrating again as their League One status is confirmed - with the added bonus of MK going down.

Neal Ardley has done a stunning job in the past month and has now led the side to six games unbeaten, gaining a nomination for the Manager of the Month award for April, with the home game against Bury now a celebration of the side's success in staying up.

Fans are, understandably, delighted that the Dons have secured safety, meaning they will play in the division above MK for the first time in their history.

Here's what they had to say:

A 0-0 draw at Doncaster on Tuesday night was enough for the Dons to secure safety in League One ahead of the final game of the season at Kingsmeadow.

The players celebrated safety with the travelling Dons fans after the game, and boss Ardley wanted to share the moment with the fans, but not to celebrate the side being 'wonderful', but the celebrate the fact they're still a League One side - something that should not be taken for granted.

He said: "I said to the boys afterwards that we should all go over and celebrate together with the fans. I am glad the fans got to enjoy it.

"We can all take a deep breath now and look forward to Saturday. Not to celebrate us being wonderful, just to celebrate the fact that we are a League One team.

"That should not be taken for granted.

"We can look forward to Saturday and after that look at how we are going to improve next season."
